It Was My Season (Live From Minneapolis / 2013)

Tell me a reason

To break things off

Stop the bleeding

When it's my season

Mind was just rewing

Your eyes they went hard

Our parents were freaking

But it was our season

All that time ago

If you want to stop our thing you'll stop my heart

All this pain inside's still just too sharp

What was I thinking

Step out of your trailer

And into this dark

It's warm and it's breathing

And it's our season

Your dad is half sleeping

But really he's gone

Can you hear his VCR weeping

They crossed his wires completely

When they made him fire that gun

I'll say to you: to cut it off's to cut me down

If they take me out of school, you out of town

I called a friend, my world at end, my words unwound

I said

We're dumb, we're dead, shut up about it now

I won't say I'm sorry

And how would they know

Below the Atari

Well, I could feel your heart was just going

We'll meet on the weekend

Your dad won't be home

Your sister's out cleaning

You don't need to speak it

Because I know, baby, I know

I said I know

You know I know

I know that it was our season

Baby, I know it's hard to believe it

I said I know there isn't a reason

You know I know it's only a feeling

When I look back on it now

Remember mixed up I got

Before they got me sorted out

All that heart-in-my-mouth

All that head-filled-with-doubt

It's fading out

I hardly think about it now

They say that I'll go to college

And you will stay home

And watch while I'm leaving

The cold will just creep in

Oh, Jason, I know
